All About Clinton's Latest Epic Pantsuit

Hillary Clinton's Red Pantsuit Was A Great Metaphor For Last Night's Debate

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton recently stopped by Zach Galifianakis' Between Two Fernsand made a poignant observation about the scrutiny she gets for her outfit choices compared to her male counterparts. "There's this thing called the double standard," she said when asked what she would wear to the upcoming presidential debate, "so I think about, what should the first woman nominee of one of our two major parties wear to the debate?" At that point, she hadn't yet picked her primetime pantsuit, and she speculated that her opponent would opt for "that red power tie." Monday night, Clinton delivered an incredible performance, and viewers immediately reacted to her words — as well as to her bright-red jacket and trouser combination.

Clinton's latest outfit choice didn't detract or distract from her policies — nor her dexterity in defending them — on stage.
